About the story
"An incredible discovery on one of Saturn’s moons leads a force of humans to a broken planet on the far reaches of the universe. A source of energy called Aleph exists there that grants ultimate power to who ever controls it... However, after becoming trapped on the planet, the human forces split into factions and fight amongst themselves for supremacy and dominion over the Aleph. The peaceful inhabitants of the planet decide enough is enough and a hero emerges amongst them who hopes to lead his people to freedom... Using nefarious means and exploiting the disunity amongst the human ranks, Harec recruits a rag tag group of rogues, outlaws and hired guns from the various factions and pits them against those who would destroy his people... As they begin to fight back against the human invaders, the Raiders soon face a new deadly threat wholly intent on making the entire universe burn, just for kicks…."

By Łukasz AnkudoSpacelords is the new and free Raiders of the Broken Planet. Was change from paid chapters to all-free game a good one? Well... It helped, but not much.

By Saeed AghababaieRaiders of the Broken Planet is a very unique online shooter and it is so different from any other game in this genre. Gameplay is so variant and deep and challenging and make you try so hard to play better and overcome missions. Otherwise most of the online shooter, Melee combat is so important in Raiders of the Broken Planet and also it’s so fun and need the right timing. Some of the best designed and most psychotic characters that I’ve ever seen, are ready in this game to take you to an amazing journey through a broken world with distinct art style. Play solo is also fun but high difficulty of the game and gaining no XP point in this mode, encourage you to play with other raiders or as an antagonist.. Very little free content and some balancing issues in characters and difficulty of the game are the weak points of this beautiful game. Raiders of the Broken Planet is a game that worth your time very well and is so amazing and risky even in the mission reward section.

ByRaiders of the Broken Planet is a fun third person shooter on PlayStation 4 that is trying to do things a bit differently. Some things work and some need some extra work, but overall, now that the game's prologue has changed into the Eternal Soldier, and after some rebalancing and polish here and there, the current version of the base game is an experience that has definitely been improved, and it does make it easier to see where MercurySteam is taking the story with subsequent campaigns.

By Jed WhitakerThis a fresh third-person shooter with asymmetrical multiplayer and a cast of characters that's hard not to love. Even if its servers are basically empty and it includes microtransactions that belong in a free-to-play game.

By Adam SiddiquiRaiders of the Broken Planet has a lot of promise. The game currently only features 6 missions over 2 campaigns but has 3 more operations on the way. The incredible world and lore of this science-fiction universe were captivating but the issue was all the grinding.
